Just read an interesting post at ArtWords (http://xplsv.blogspot.com/2011/12/rafael-lozano-hemmers-recorders.html?showComment=1324513212403#c5997972311010712949) which got me thinking about participatory media and the convergence of life and culture (they might be the same thing but let us assume for the moment they are not).
Though the following video does not necessarily present an “art piece” is it not, to a certain extent, a cultural expression that takes its cue from present society and the Long Now? And is this not art?
